Once upon a time Ms Kristin was a little girl and followed her teachers directions of circling and underlining things. Then she grew up and was a teacher. She showed the children how to circle the big Xs and underline the little Xs. She told them to find the X page in their journals but there were so many pages! What ever would the children do?
Read on to learn about the children and their journals, the sun at the center of the earth (?!), x-rays, eating dog bones and a creature chasing a ball.
What color were the bookmarks at Journal Time?

Green! These bookmark tabs helped to get us to the X page in our journals.

We also had real pencils “like 4th graders.”

Is the sun in the center of the earth?

No! The picture looked like the sun but it is really the boiling hot inner core!

Thank you to another preschool teacher friend for sending us this present. It’s a wonderful book and already has had a lot of pages turned! Thank you, Ms Linda!

Friends painted more shades of blue, green and white on our flat earth project as well.




Did you play in the Healthcare Center?

When X is for Xray, we turn part of our classroom into a Healthcare Center!

We had a very busy center today with nurses, doctors, technicians and patients. They displayed wonderful bedside manner.






Did you eat dog bones for snack today?

Yes! There were Scooby Snacks from Lane that look exactly like real dog bones. He also brought EXTRA cheesy goldfish and fruit drinks. Thank you, Lane!

What animal chased a ball during outside time?

Ludo and Auden’s dog! We got to watch from the fence.
We also had butterfly wings, pretend food, walkie talkies (with no batteries), a parachute with the Kansas wind, bubbles and more digging on the dirt hill.


Enjoy more video and photos of our day!
We had some friends work with the well loved links. They made chains reach across the entire Circle Time corner.
